I hard downgraded from thieaudio hype 2 to airpods 4. And I don't even feel the downgrade anymore. With spatial audio turned on and Apple music, new gen music sounds actually fun and enjoyable.

They also have the regular Airpods 4 for $74
I bought these for a close one and asked to try out the ANC, actually surprisingly good for having no eartips. AirPods are crazy good, even if you're not huge on Apple products.
if you have an iPhone you might as well get AirPods since you’ll get all the features.
Bruh I paid like 130 for this back in August lol. I couldn't wait 4 more months after I lost my AirPods 2
Apple - Airpods
Airpods 3 and 4 are straight ass. Because there's no soft tips, if it doesn't perfectly match your ear shape then the audio sounds terrible and your audio will likely leak.
So what you're saying is if airpods don't fit properly they sound like galaxy buds.
I personally use the AirPods 4 and the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro. The AirPods, considering their price and lack of silicone eartips, sound quite good. Even the bass is good, not the bad, boomy(cheap) type of
the bad thing is no apple store has the demo piece of airpods 4 to experience. Why would someone buy something so expensive without testing it, without checking if they are comfortable in ear or not
Usig these airpods 4 rn, if you dont really care/need the noise cancellation of the airpod pros, these are solid everyday wireless earbuds.
Airpods 4 without ANC at 9899 - https://amzn.to/4nMdVbs with ANC at 14499 - https://amzn.to/4nbvamn
Sound quality wise there definitely are better alternatives but nc wise these are absolutely insane and easily beat all others at their price... If u have an apple ecosystem definitely go for airpods
Comfort is 🔥 (can wear for hours).ANC is decent but not crazy good.Calls + Apple integration are top-tier.Big downside: no ear tips = weaker noise isolation, and price feels a bit high.
Wish I just went with the AirPods again, these ear buds are trash when paired with iPhone.
